I have an OPEN Payables Invoice dated 8/4/2015 for $ .01 which I would like to move to HIST. What is the best practice for dealing with old invoices that are OPEN in closed years? I am not talking about the most recent closed year. In this instance, the OPEN invoice is two years back. I do not want anything to affect the closed year (2015) financials.
Thank you.

b. Vendor ID: As needed.
c. Purchases: .01.
d. Document Number: As needed.
c. Distributions button: Select GL Accounts as needed.
e. Apply button: Select desired invoice on which the Credit Memo will be applied.
4. Posted the transaction.
5. Went to GP>>Tools>>Routines>> Master Posting.
6. Select the Credit Memo transaction to delete.
a. Check then uncheck the box for the desired transaction.
b. Click on the Batch ID link (blue link).
c. Click on the Delete button.
7. Went to GP>>Tools>>Setup>>Posting>>Posting.
a. Series: Purchasing.
b. Origin: Payables Trx Entry.

8. Verified nothing posted to the GL and the invoice was now in History.
Thank you.
Micki,
Thank you for responding to my question. The invoice that is still OPEN, in a History Year, with .01 left, is really a large invoice for $3,293.73 with a payment applied of $3,293.72. That is why there is only .01 remaining. I do not wish to void the transaction. I simply want to apply a Credit memo or something along this line that moves the invoice to HISTORY without affecting the closed financial year (2015).
Thank you.
You could void the open transaction and change the void date to the current date
